Awesome Robotics and Artificially Intelligence Agent Companies Awesome

A List of Companies, Both Large and Small, That Are Stable and Developing Robots or Autonomous Intelligent Agents

Robotics is awesome, and people who think robotics is awesome are awesome, so I have a decided to put together a living list of important industry innovators in robotics and artificially intelligent agents. This is intended to be a starting point; there are many other cool companies out there that are just getting started! If you want a company added to this list, or think something needs to be adjusted, please a pull request (see the contributing guidelines)!

A NOTE ABOUT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT AGENTS: A lot of companies are saying that they have "artificial intelligence" at this point, including many on this list. However, this list is restricted to those companies that work on "artificially intelligent agency" or "agent intelligence;" that is, the products they produce and services the sell use artificial intelligence or machine learning to enable autonomous agents that make their own decisions. I make no claim that there is one correct use of the term "AI," but this is not to be confused with the umbrella term "AI" being used by businesses to include generic machine learning, data analysis, and data visionalization services that enable human decision makers (to say nothing of the services that involve none of the above). Occasionally this list will include companies focused on technology that supports or directly applies to artificially intelligent agents (for example those working on dialogue, 3D mapping, or computer vision), but I generally try to discourage this.

Stable Start-ups

This list contains what I am calling start-ups, which is any company that isn't public, has a valuation at <$500M, has only a single primary location, and/or does not have a revenue stream that could result in stable profitability. "Stable" doesn't mean they cannot fail, but this list will not be used to keep track of every single effort as that would be exhuasting. If you want something like that, may I suggest CrunchBase and Robotics Business Review.
